Thank you for creating the ticket.

IIUC, it's my badness/failure/embugment/something-negative for:
https://dev.gnupg.org/T4954

At that time, my intention was introducing Ed448 and X448 and making the
things aligned (while the specification for EdSOMETHING for OpenPGP was
not yet finished).  My intention was interoperability actually, but
alas, opposite outcome.

I'll continue on T7403.

Thank you for the reproducer, it's helpful.
